Description
City of Tarpon Springs Board of Adjustments and Appeals meeting April 27, 2016
B
E

F
H
A
Is
a
quasi
judicial
proceeding
where
the
Board
of
Adjustment
acts
in
a
quasar
judicial
rather
than
a
legislative
capacity
at
a
quasi
judicial
hearing,
is
not
the
board's
function
to
make
law,
but
rather
to
apply
law
that
has
already
been
established
in
a
quasi
judicial
hearing?
The
board
is
required
by
law
to
make
findings
of
fact,
based
upon
the
evidence
presented
at
the
hearing
and
apply
those
findings
effects
to
previously
establish
criteria
containing
the
code
of
ordinances
in
order
to
make
a
legal
decision
regarding
the
application
before
it.
A
The
board
may
only
consider
evidence
at
this
hearing
that
the
law
considers
competent,
substantial
and
relevant
to
the
issues
if
the
competent,
substantial
and
relevant
evidence
at
the
hearing
demonstrates
that
the
applicant
has
met
the
criteria
established
in
the
code
of
ordinance
and
the
board
is
required
by
law
to
find
in
favor
of
the
applicant.
The
same
token,
if
the
competent,
substantial,
substantial
and
relevant
evidence
at
the
hearing
demonstrates
that
the
applicant
has
failed
to
meet
the
criteria
established
in
the
code
of
ordinance
and
the
board
is
required
by
law
to
fight
against
the
applicant.
A
H
F
D
Essentially,
what
came
in
as
the
applicant
has
made
their
formal
request?
It
did
not
make
it
to
your
previous
agenda
simply
because
we
had
to
do
the
advertising
necessary
to
meet
meet
that
in
the
request
came
in
after
the
advertising
had
gone
out
for
the
previous
meeting.
That
being
said,
they
did
make
the
30
day
window
we're
talking
semantics,
and
you
know
they
got
their
advertising
everything
in
there.
So
at
this
point
there
were
asking
for
a
six-month
extension
per
your
ordinance.
D
It's
required
to
come
back
before
this
board
in
order
to
provide
that
extension.
Staff
has
no
concerns.
As
far
as
this
nothing
has
changed.
The
applicant
basically
wants
to
just
move
forward.
They
had
some
issues
with
some
other
pieces
and
some
other
issues
going
on
at
the
house
that
they
had
to
address
first,
so
they're
just
asking
for
some
additional
time
to
get
their
permits
and
order
and
pull
their
permit
with
that
staff
can
answer
any
questions.
If
the
board
has
any
this.
H
J
Hi,
my
name
is
Shannon
right.
We
live
at
101,
reed
street
and
that's
all
we
were
requesting
was
an
extension
on
the
variance
just
for
financial
reasons,
because
we
had
to
replace
the
roof
on
the
house
and
it
costs
as
much
as
building
a
new
building,
apparently
so
thats
all.
I
was
just
requesting
a
variance.
The
extension
thank.
H
C
A
A
F
F
H
H
Six
months,
six
months
to
get
a
permit
correct,
correct,
okay,
moving
on
then
application
item
number
four
for
a
variance
to
increase
the
maximum
height
of
a
fence.
The
address
is
1401
Meyer
Lane.
This
is
on
Keystone
road
east
of
town
and
the
applicant
is
in
the
audience
any
ex
parte
communications
on
this
item
from
any
of
the
board
members.
H
D
Again,
the
application
is
for
1401
Myers
Lane.
The
variance
is
to
increase
the
maximum
height
of
offense
from
four
to
six
feet
in
the
front
yard.
Essentially,
the
code
section
is
36.0
three
that
were
deciding
item
be
in
all
residential
districts.
No
offences,
walls
or
hedges
shall
exceed
four
feet
in
height
when
located
within
the
required
front
yard
setback.
D
The
subject
property
is
located.
The
Maya
the
corner
has
ceded
Myers
lane
and
Keystone
road.
There
was
a
previous
variance
granted
in
March
26
2014
dan
creats,
the
maximum
height
of
the
fence,
from
six
to
eight
feet
on
the
side
and
rear
yards
in
four
to
six
feet
on
the
west
side
of
the
property
in
the
front
adjacent
to
the
intersection
of
meyer
lane
and
keystone
road.
The
justification
for
that
previous
variance
request
was
a
significant
change
in
the
elevation
between
the
subject
property
Keystone,
Road
sidewalk.
D
When
Keith
Thurman
was
widened
from
two
lanes
to
four
lanes,
the
subject:
property
was
impacted
due
to
the
taupe
topography
in
the
area.
The
gap
lican
did
make
a
previous
request
to
increase
the
fence
height
in
the
front
yard,
from
four
to
six
feet.
The
board
adjustment
heard
that
request
in
January
and
was
finally
decided
in
be
wary.
The
board
adjustment
decided
to
deny
that
variance.
At
that
time.
The
applicant
then
asked
for
a
rehearing
request,
which
was
granted
by
this
board
on
March
20
30
2016.
D
The
applicant
has
subsequently
provided
some
additional
material
under
the
circuitry
request,
including
a
new
letter
of
hardship,
additional
pictures,
LD
c
section,
two
thousand
that
should
be
2050.
It
should
be
21
5.02,
not
2015,
notice
of
decisions
for
application,
15,
1
16,
a
petition
for
the
surrounding
neighbors,
a
story
from
a
Terran
Bay
Times
about
a
G's
about
energies,
the
adjacent
home
and
materials
from
the
previously
approved
variance
application
1412
the
applicant
is
allowing
is,
is
asking
to
allow
for
additional
fencing
at
six
feet
in
height
in
the
front
yard.
D
Along
the
the
front
perimeter
of
the
house,
the
applicant
stated
hardships
are
topographical,
changes
in
elevation
between
the
front
yard
and
the
house,
the
proximity
of
Keystone
road
and
the
change
in
elevation
that
occurred
as
a
result
of
the
widening
of
Keystone
roads
and
unsafe
conditions.
Due
to
an
abandoned
house
across
Myra
sleen,
the
applicant
has
provided
a
petition
signed
by
neighboring
properties
within
the
subdivision
that
they
agreed
to
increase
to
the
increase
in
the
fence
height.
D
It
should
be
mentioned
that
approval
adjacent
property
owners
is
not
a
requirement
of
the
variance
approval,
alright,
so
based
on
the
right
review
criteria,
the
home
is
slightly
elevated
above
Myers
Lane.
The
topographical
conditions
that
prompted
the
previous
failure
and
still
do
exist.
However,
the
applicant
has
installed
a
fence
on
the
affected
areas
of
the
property.
Under
the
previous
variance,
the
fence
is
installed
as
a
rod,
iron
fence
with
masonry
columns.
The
elevational
change
between
the
house
and
the
street
is
a
physical
condition
of
the
land.
D
However,
staff
does
not
agree
that
the
change
in
elevation
warrants
an
increase
in
the
height
of
the
fence
in
the
front
yard.
The
conditions
are
not
self
created.
The
house
was
built
in
2014
and
due
to
the
location
of
the
drainage
system
for
the
subdivision,
the
house
was
built
higher
to
allow
for
a
positive
flow
of
stormwater.
The
request
is
not
a
minimal
request.
The
applicant
is
has
not
provided
any
evidence
to
show
why
a
six-foot
fence
should
be
allowed
in
the
front
yard.
D
The
land
development
code
does
allow
for
a
maximum
four-foot
fence
in
the
front
yard.
Denying
this
request
would
not
deny
the
applicant
reasonable
use
of
the
property
the
applicant
is
currently
living
in
the
structure.
Granting
the
variance
will
confer
a
special
privilege.
None
of
the
homeowners
in
the
area
that
have
fences
have
required.
Variances
for
the
heights
of
the
fences
staff
agrees.
There
is
an
elevational
difference
between
the
street
and
the
house.
Wherever
staff
does
not
agree,
the
elevational
distant
elevational
difference
justifies
an
increase
in
the
height
of
the
fence.
D
The
request
isn't,
will
not
negatively
impact
the
property
values
in
the
area,
and
the
request
is
consistent
with
the
neighborhood
character
would
not
create
a
nuisance.
This
application
was
published
in
tampa
bay
times.
When
was
proper
notice
was
sent
to
Proctor's
within
200
feet
of
the
subject
property
in
concerned.
The
property
has
been
posted
now
twice,
staff
has
received
no
pague,
no
common.
D
As
of
the
date
of
this
report
and
staff
is
recommending
denial
of
the
requested
variance
to
increase
the
maximum
height
of
the
fence
from
four
to
six
feet
in
the
front
yard,
the
request
does
not
meet
the
review
criteria
established
in
section
21
5.0
to
be,
and
to
15
points.
0.5
of
the
LDC
and
I
can
answer
any
questions
that
you
may
have.
E
Is
there
any
I
have
a
question,
but
is
there
any
restriction
for
the
owner
to
bring
the
elevation
of
their
front
yard
from
the
slope
that
he
has
from
the
base
of
the
half
of
the
base
of
the
wall
or
depart
it
start
of
the
foundation
who's
the
proposed
fence?
They
want
to
do.
Apparently
this.
This
is
rob
green,
that's
why
they
want
to
bring
it
up.
E
E
D
Is
correct,
she
could
change
the
elevation
of
of
the
house
or
the
area
of
her
front
yard,
provided
she
can
establish
a
new
water
flow
pattern
because
she
will
have
to
meet
the
drainage
requirements
because
any
elevational
change
there
will
affect
the
way
the
drainage
does
flow.
As
a
result
of
that
was
the
first
lot
and
when
the
drainage
system
was
put
in,
it
was
put
in
with
a
drain
there
in
the
front
yard.
D
E
H
D
Applicant
can
choose
to
grade
and
fill
the
yard
how
they
choose,
provided
that
they
can
meet
the
requirements
of
the
permit
application,
and
in
this
case
their
biggest
concern
would
be
the
positive
drainage
flow
of
that
lot
over
time.
So
if
it
was
only
the
area
of
the
fence,
she
would
have
to
include
that
as
part
of
her
application.
D
For
the
very
for
that,
excuse
me
for
the
permit-
and
yes,
she
could
do
that,
but
that's
something
that
she
have
to
work
with
an
engineer
to
determine
those
elevations
and
what's
appropriate
there
for
any
type
of
swelling
or
things
that
need
to
be
done
to
make
that
drainage.
A
positive
drain
do
situation.
B
First
of
all,
I
am
Anastasia
connect
and
I'm
an
owner
of
this
house
I'm
very
sorry
to
bother
you
with
this
again,
but
thank
you
for
coming
and
considering
all
decision.
First
of
all,
before
even
starting
finding
all
these
variances
I
talked
to
them
a
landscaping
company
who
did
feel
my
front
yard
all
right
here.
It
was
like
much
lower
slope,
so
my
intention
was
to
make
it
higher
end
even
and
they
said
no,
they
cannot
do
it
because
of
the
topographical
conditions.
B
B
My
front
yard
was
basically
filled
to
the
level
of
the
second
house.
So
if
you
look
from
the
left
to
right,
it's
not
even
so.
Basically
we
consider
the
many
solutions
before
I
even
come
here
to
ask
you
for
the
variance
and
the
landscaping
company.
They
feel
the
yard
the
best
they
can,
but
they
cannot
elevate
this
slope
or
make
it
more
even
than
it
already.
B
With
the
car
driveway,
it's
took
a
driveway,
it
was
placed
on
the
same
topographical
level
is
the
keystone
road,
and
then
it
goes
higher
toward
the
neighboring
house
like
this
so
and
also
the
slope
coming
from
the
house
down
to
the
drainage
system.
It's
very
unique
topography,
call,
slope
and
I
want
you
to
believe
me
that
we
considered
all
other
solutions
before
I
even
come
here
to
you,
and
it
is
just
physically
well
I
asked
my
landscaping.
B
E
B
Basically,
the
question
was:
this
question
came
from
Heather.
She
asked
me
to
like
how
the
60th
hands
or
will
be
better
than
the
foffy
advanced
fence.
What
I
did
our
I
ordered
the
four
feet
vans,
which
is
he
on
one
picture
and
then
and
just
to
give
you
a
visual
evidence,
I,
basically,
by
myself,
put
on
the
two
front,
columns
I
put
additional
stones,
I
didn't
glue
it,
nothing
I
I,
just
put
them
in
to
the
height
of
6.
So
this
case
you
can
compare
how
the
six
feet
actually
differs
from
the
four
feet.
B
When
you
go
with
the
code,
which
allows
404
feet,
front
yard
fence,
if
you
basically
put
my
if
you
eliminate
my
front
yard
slope
completely,
if
it
would
be
like
even
surface
six
feet
completely,
like
reaches
the
bottom
of
the
house
windows,
which
is
four
feet.
So,
if
you
consider
the
slope
six
feet,
fails
is
basically
the
same
as
fully
advance
on
the
even
surface.
I
think.
K
B
B
B
So,
and
also
the
petition
from
the
neighbors
I
heard
this
question
from
a
board
member
before
so
how
the
neighborhood
considers
are
all
this
project,
so
I
went
to
each
house
to
each
neighbor
on
my
street
and
I
asked
them
so
what
they
think
and
they
signed
the
petition.
Every
house
on
my
street
signed
the
petition
that
sixty
eight
feet
will
be
much
better
than
four
feet
and
will
basically
bring.
B
B
Recently
not,
however,
today
I
contacted
two
of
my
neighbors
one
is
across
the
street
and
to
the
house
on
the
am
on
the
right
and
they
were
willing
to
come
to
this
meeting.
I
really
don't
know
why
they
didn't
show
up,
but
they
said
they
are
going
to
come
and
present
you
with
the
evidence
of
unsaved.
Here.
B
The
house
across
the
street
neighbor,
who
was
going
to
come
here
and
tell
you
all
what
he
saw
she
was
calling.
The
police
and
I
specifically
asked
you
to
come
and
to
present
this
evidence
to
you
and
she
said
she
will.
However,
I
don't
know
for
what
reason
she's
she's
really
basic
woman.
Maybe
something
happened,
shi
shi,
jian
shuang
there.
B
B
C
B
B
B
C
H
D
Fence
needs
to
be
permitted,
they're
structurally,
look
at
those
anything
that
is
has
structural
supports
and
that
type
of
thing
if
blocks
are
stacked,
even
if
they're
stacked
in
a
way
where
they
appear
to
be
as
long
as
they
are
not
cemented
together,
they
can
be
stacked
that
way
be
no
different
than
if
we
stacked
it
in
our
driveway.
However,
if
they've
been
cemented
and
secured,
that's
a
different
story
that
requires
the
permit.
E
B
Well,
I
I
believe
there
I
supply
this
picture.
I
took
my
lane
are
basically
goes
on
a
slope
like
this
of
from
the
lake
outside.
It
just
goes
down
like
this,
and
my
house
is
the
lowest
one
on
on
the
meijer
lane.
So
it
goes
like
this
stove
at
the
key
stroll
and
what
you
see
from
my
house.
It
goes
up,
so
that's
why
the
day
drainage
system
was
placed
right
in
front
of
my
house,
because
it's
like
the
lowest
here
on
the
Medellin,
so.
E
B
Basically,
what
I
thought
the
permanent
from
2014
I,
which
was
the
same
thing-
elevation
of
the
front
yard
fans
from
4
feet,
26,
heat
and
I.
Have
this
permission.
So
basically
this
was
a
permission
to
elevate
the
height
of
the
frantic
advance
on
on
the
left
side.
So
it
would
connect
other
side
of
my
house
to
this
particular
stone
wall
and
it
would
be
on
the
same
height
of
6
feet
and
I
still
do
have
waited
six
hit
all
so.
Basically,
what
I
am
asking?
B
E
E
B
E
E
H
E
H
H
H
B
B
H
B
H
B
E
H
Any
evidence
of
anybody's
staying
there
and
then
normally
there
would
be
some
evidence.
Rappers
trash
something
all
I
saw
was
a
lot
of
concrete
rubble.
When
I
went
there,
do
you
have
any
pictures
of
anybody
staying
there
photographs
police
reports,
evidence
from
the
police
anything
like
that.
First.
B
H
B
H
D
Police
went
the
code
enforcement
went
out
and
looked
at
the
house
to
determine
if
there
was
any
evidence
of
anybody
living
there
or
presence
of
vandalism
or
any
that
type
of
thing.
They
reported
back
to
me
that
they
found
no
evidence
of
that.
That,
aside,
the
basis
for
variance
is
the
physical
hardship
of
the
property,
not
a
perceived
unsafety
issue.
If
there's
a
safety
issue
in
the
neighborhood,
that's
an
enforcement
thing
and
that's
not
something
that
this
board
is
charged
with.
H
K
H
B
I
basically
I
have
this
permission
to
put
this
fence
across
that
I
will
basically
connect
this
stone
wall.
O.O,
concrete
stone
wall
along
I
kissed
on
road
across
this
particular
driveway,
and
connected
to
the
left
side
of
my
house
to
the
left
side
of
the
house.
I
do
have
this
torment,
but
basically
and
I
decided
not
to
do
this
and
the
driveway
is
going
to
be
open
completely
and
I
just
want
to
move
this
particular
fence
to
protect
the
front
door
in
the
front
of
the
house.
My.
H
B
I
do
have
them
another
permeant
that
I
have
applied
two
years
ago
for
their
elevation
of
the
fence
on
the
side
of
my
house
to
the
eight
feet
and
if
you
have
seen
the
property,
you
probably
notice
it.
So
all
my
all
my
property
along
this
particular
that
I
always
comply
close.
So
it's
no
open
doors.
Nothing.
There
is
side
of
the
house
and
then
aight
hit
fence
with
the
gate,
which
is
always
closed
and
walked.
H
B
Yes,
basically,
I
need
to
let
the
city
people
come
in
and
to
work
on
the
sewage
station
tool
and
I
don't
see
the
reason.
Why
should
I
close
this
particular
driveway,
because
this
is
narrow
doors
now
open
areas
on
the
side
of
the
house
and
then
I
have
eight
feet
of
fence
with
the
gate,
which
is
completely
closed.
H
So
that's
their
problem,
but
we
haven't
seen
any
evidence
of
a
problem
and
your
solution
to
that
problem
won't
work
because
half
of
the
or
the
driveway
is
going
to
remain
open.
If
there
is
people
going
to
want
to
come
into
your
curtilage
of
your
yard,
they're
going
to
just
walk
around
the
wall
and
go
through
the
driveway
is
that
right
and.
B
Regarding
the
safety,
I
want
to
say
that
if
anyone
is
willing
to
walk
on
this
driveway,
it's
not
a
problem
because,
on
the
side
of
the
house,
I
do
not
have
any
doors.
I
have
two
small,
tiny
windows
which
are
very
very
high
so
and
then,
when
you
pass
the
side
of
the
house-
and
this
is
a
very,
very
m-
like
huge
aight
heat
at
all
of
fence,
with
the
gate
which
is
completely
closed,
so
there
is
no
way
anyone
could
reach
the
property
from
this
driveway.
B
H
B
H
That
thing
on
that
point
you
understand
from
what
I'm
hearing
tonight
is
that
it
is
possible
for
you
to
elevate
where
these
pre
procedures
are
at
the
front
of
your
yard.
Curtilage.
You
could
elevate
that
somehow
two
feet
with
Phil
and
then
put
a
four
foot
wall
above
that
with
the
appropriate
drainage,
so
that
it
won't
flood
anybody
else.
Is
that
correct
hilly
yeah?
You.
B
Understand
that
now
I
understand
this,
and
they
also
want
you
to
consider
that
I
am
NOT,
a
professional
engineer,
Aldean,
scaper
and
I
did
talk
to
the
people
asking
them
to
do
this
and
they
said
it's
not
possible
because
of
the
topography
of
the
area.
So
this
is
my
name
by
and
he
is
willing
to
give.
There
may
be
additional
evidence
all
the
unsafety
of
all
this
particular
thing,
so
she
she
lives
right
by
this
particular
house.
If
you
are
willing
to
hear
this,
okay.
H
F
Do
you
have
some
poor
in
this
newspaper
article
dated
September
2015?
This
is
the
complaint
states
that
the
house
would
be
demolished,
it's
unclear
when
that
will
happen.
Tarpon
springs
building
development,
director,
Anthony
Mastracchio,
said
the
city
attorney
is
looking
into
what
can
be
done.
This
could
take
a
few
months.
Any
progress,
any
notice.
D
D
Of
that
aren't
relevant,
that
aside
at
this
particular
point,
that
house
is
in
litigation
as
a
result
of
its
construction.
It
was
constructed
in
the
incorrect
location
as
a
result.
It's
in
a
litigation
until
that
litigation
is
settled.
There
will
not
be
a
removal
of
that
house
or
completion
of
that
house
until
that's
settled
as
a
result.
That
will
remain,
as
is
because
the
city
at
right
at
this
point
is
not
part
of
that.
Those
those
negotiations
in
the
litigation
right.
C
Parents,
chairman
can't
just
make
a
comment
at
this
point,
since
safety
is
not
part
of
the
criteria.
Why
are
we
going
to
listen
to
her
testimony?
This
case
obviously
has
not
met
the
review
criteria
of
sections
to
15
point
0
to
B
and
2
15
point
O
2.5
of
the
LDC.
Those
are
the
criteria
we
need
to
be
judging
this
case
on
not
on
items
that
the
attorney
has
said
and
our
planner
has
said.
We
cannot
consider
I.
A
Could
speak
to
that?
We
just
do
have
to
give
the
applicant
the
the
opportunity
to
present
all
the
evidence
that
the
applicant
feels
is
necessary
for
you
to
make
a
decision,
it's
up
to
the
board
to
determine
whether
that
evidence
is
relevant,
competent
and
substantial.
So
we
do
have
to
give
the
opportunity
for
the
applicant
to
present
whatever
evidence
that
she
has
to
present
all.
G
Then
there
is
no
x
mark
on
my
driveway
I've
had
three
surveyors
come
out
to
the
three
that
did
ours
and
two
new
ones
we
had
to
pay
for
ourselves,
but
I
also
have
on
video
what
I
think
is
one
of
beaches,
workers
trying
to
make
an
x
mark
in
my
driveway,
and
he
in
this
video.
He
admits
that
they
cannot
even
find
it
and
he's
in
he's
in
this
video,
with
a
very
sharp
pointy
stick
and
ivory
and
down
there,
because
I
saw
them
doing
this
and
I
don't
know
we're.
G
Maybe
I
don't
know
if
it's
because
there's
no
address
that
they
marked
it
too,
but
it's
it's
it's
a
it's
a
mess
in
there
it's
flooded,
I
have.
I
have
videotape
from
memorial
day.
I
think
it
was
last
year
or
veterans
day
when
we
had
all
that
rain.
There
was
like
there
was
like
water
like
this
high
and
through
the
whole
place.
Everything
was
soaked
for
days
and
it's
got
to
be
a
mosquito
pit,
if
not
a
snake
pit,
we're.
G
H
G
H
G
G
H
G
Not
I've
not
gone
out
there
at
night,
because
I'm
afraid
to
I'm
afraid
to
even
though
I
hear
something
going
on.
I
know
that
things
were
stolen
out
of
there,
because
I
heard
some
commotion
going
on
and
the
next
day
that
when
the
builders
told
me
that
a
bunch
of
copper
was
stolen,
so
I
know
there
are
people
in
there
in
evening
that
I'm
afraid
to
go.
Investigate.
E
G
G
F
G
H
B
Yeah
there
are
only
thing
I
want
you
to
consider.
Is
that
the
opinion
of
the
people
who
are
living
nearby
and
they
all
signed
the
petition
with
no
problems
that
they
would
like
this
fence
to
be
6
feet
all
people
for
like
nine
houses
on
our
street?
Basically,
we
are
the
one
who
are
living
in
this
condition,
and
everyone
understands
it
and
instead
of
the
even
safety
concerns,
they
think
that
it
will
make
our
street
more
beautiful
and
basically
enhance
the
aesthetics
view
all
other
evidence.
B
B
K
J
K
Claim
to
us
is
where
I
have
to
make
a
decision
and
I'm
sure
the
rest
of
the
board
has
to
make
a
decision
on
the
difference
between
what
a
four-foot
fence
would
give
you
aesthetically
and
security
wise
versus
what
a
six-foot
fence
would
give
you
aesthetically
and
safety
safety
wise
and
for
me,
I.
Don't
feel
that
I've
seen
the
difference
of
the
two
feet,
what
it's
going
to
do
for
you,
the
aesthetics
I,
think
you
have
a
beautiful
situation
with
a
four-foot
fence
that
make
it
a
six-foot
fence.
K
B
I
understand
you
and
first
of
all,
I
want
to
say
that
every
person
who
lives
in
the
proximity
of
this
abandoned
construction.
We
try
our
best
not
to
provoke
the
dangerous
situation.
So,
like
wall
said
she
is
not
getting
out
of
the
house
at
night,
I
am
NOT
getting
out
all
the
houses.
We
are
not
like
provoking
the
situation
when
we
can
challenge
those
people
also
challenged
our
safety,
which
is
already
not
the
perfect
situation.
B
Basically,
so
my
goal
to
come
to
you
is
to
prevent
the
future
danger
and
to
make
my
life
and
life
of
my
family
are
more
safe
than
it
currently
is.
But
if
you
don't
allow
me
to
do
this,
I'm
not
going
to
provoke
any
danger-
I'm
not
going
out
of
my
house
at
night
and
try
to
find
those
people
and
basically
provoke
them
to
damage
me
on
my
property.
K
K
B
B
And
also
I
I
came
to
you
over
the
second
application
and
just
because
I
believe
that
I
don't
have
the
same
right
as
all
people
are
in
Tarpon
Springs
who
have
the
fluid
front
yard
and
they
have
for
heat
vents
on
the
whole.
On
the
flat
surface,
I
think
I
should
have
the
same
right
to
have
for
heat
fans
on
a
flat
surface,
and
if
you
consider
the
spoke
difference
exactly
what
I
need
is
to
add
two
feet
to
have
basically
the
same
Frances.
Many
people
have
on
the
flavor
out
front
yard.
H
E
E
E
C
B
But
my
last
question:
what
I
want
to
point
out?
Instead,
they
are
called
permission,
is
for
their
four
feet,
front
yard
fence,
but
it
doesn't
specify
if
the
property
has
a
slope
or
something
it
is
assumed
that
the
surface
is
flattened.
Everyone
can
put
if
for
heat,
vents
in
front
of
the
house
on
the
same
level
of
the
house.
B
However,
if
you
consider
the
slope,
I
think
that
the
topographical
issue
makes
the
difference
and
or
why
should
I
be
suffering
from
the
topographical
slope
when
all
people
have
the
flat
front
yard
and
for
heat
fans
and
if
I
would
feel
the
flood
plan
together,
we'll
just
go
with
the
poofy
advance.
You.
K
You're,
your
claim
is
not
that
it's
it's
already
safe
in
your
house.
Your
claim
is
that
you
want
to
be
safe
from
strangers
on
the
street
so
to
be
safe
from
strangers
on
the
street.
You
now
have
a
six-foot
fence
from
the
street,
we're
not
concerned
about
what
it
looks
like
because
your
house
could
be
built.
If
you
stood
on
your
roof,
your
house,
you
could
be
looking
down
a
15
foot
fence.
Is
it
going
to
help
you?
K
B
K
B
B
Slope,
if
you
want
to
consider
the
safety
issue
and
the
fence
height,
then
I
will
tell
you
if
people
want
they
can
go
on
my
on
my
driveway
on
the
left
side
of
the
house
and
basically
come
to
the
Vulcan
eat,
which
is
four
feet
and
it's
they
do
not
have
to
pass
the
fans
from
the
slope.
They
can
basically
go
round
from
the
driveway,
and
this
is
a
flat
surface.
That.
K
B
K
We
consider
it
only
from
this
drug
the
driver's
side
from
not
from
the
house.
In
the
street
side,
your
house
could
be
built
on
a
hill
and
beam.
You
could
have
a
staircase
15
feet
up,
it
could
be
a
stilt
house
and
if
your
windows
at
20
feet
high,
how
high
should
we
approve
a
fence
so
that
you
don't
see
out
that
window.
F
F
It
does
okay,
almost
just
the
fact
that
they
somehow
found
a
way
to
build
a
higher
fence,
and
their
gate
is
also
olive.
Invite
was
at
least
five
foot
because
I'm
over
six
foot
tall,
the
fence
comes
to
hear
now.
Is
it
because
they
put
a
seawall
it?
Would
they
consider
this
you
alter?
Did
they
somehow
elevate,
like
mr.
Boris
was
saying,
elevate
the
land,
because
that
doesn't
fact
exist?
It's.
C
B
F
F
Possibility
is
that
all
of
your
neighbors
could
agree
to
do
a
gated
community
that
solves
a
problem.
Nobody
comes
in.
Nobody
gets
in
that
house.
The
whole
community
gets
gated,
so
you'd
have
to
go
and
get
whatever.
That
process
is
probably
going
to
raise
your
taxes,
but
if
you
can
afford
it
that
that's
another
solution,
but
I
think
you
can
already
kind
of
get
a
sense
of
where
this
is
going
otherwise
and.
B
H
A
The
motion,
I
would
just
say,
and
because
of
the
application,
how
many
times
she's
been
before
the
board.
That
I
just
wanted
to
remind
everyone
on
the
board
that
there
are
certain
criteria
that
are
only
to
be
considered
for
this
specific
variance
application.
I
know
you
all
know
that,
but
just
to
reiterate
and
those
are
the
criteria
that
are
listed
in
the
staff
report
and
those
are
the
criteria
in
your
code
again,
there's
only
to
be
considered
competent,
substantial
and
relevant
evidence
and
that's
up
to
your
determination.
A
I
would
say
the
information
that
chairman
Elliot,
presented
with
regards
to
the
site
visit
that
a
little
bit
is
presenting
his
own
evidence.
I
would
ask
you
not
to
consider
that,
when
you're
making
your
determination,
everything
else
that
both
the
applicant
and
her
witness
put
forth,
you
need
to
determine
whether
that's
competent,
substantial
are
relevant
and
whether
that
meets
the
criteria
set
forth
in
your
code
and
now
that.
K
H
H
Well,
I
certainly
appreciate
the
applicants,
tenacity,
it's
her
property,
it's
a
beautiful
piece
of
property.
She's
tried
hard
to
get
this
approved.
This
is
her
fourth
month
the
neighbors
don't
object,
which
is
maybe
a
factor,
maybe
not
that
I'd
like
to
consider
that,
although
there's
some
question
whether
it's
a
valid
criterion
defect
on
the
neighborhood,
it's
apparently
evident
that
the
applicant
can
raise
the
land
at
least
where
the
wall
would
be
located
a
foot
or
two
and
get
a
five
or
six
foot
elevation
based
upon
the
grade
level.
H
F
E
H
F
F
H
She's
not
putting
any
security
lights,
people
have
this
kind
of
problem,
do
have
security
lights
or
motion
sensors
or
they
have
other
ways
of
protecting
themselves
from
harm,
and
it
certainly
comes
to
all
of
this
myself
included
and
we
deal
with
it
as
best
we
can
but
and
I
get
to
the
so
I.
Don't
foresee
a
problem
then
we're
talking
about
the
solution
to
that
problem.
H
This
solution
is
not
a
solution
to
that
problem.
What
she's
proposing
to
do
is
not
going
to,
in
my
mind,
eliminate
that
problem
because
for
the
driveway
is
going
to
be
there,
it's
going
to
be
open.
If
someone
wants
to
come
into
a
curtilage,
her
front
yard
or
side
yard,
they
can
just
walk
through
the
driveway,
and
perhaps
it
might
be
better
for
her
safety
to
have
a
four-foot
fence
rather
than
a
6-foot
bent,
because
then
once
you're
behind
a
six-foot
fence,
it's
easier
to
be
kiddin.
H
For
that
reason,
they
don't
want
to
have
people
with
bushes
to
high
around
their
windows,
because
you
can
have
people
lurking
in
the
bushes
and
that's
just
some
thoughts.
I
apologize
for
we're
going
a
little
bit
too
far
astray
on
new
evidence,
but
I
thought
it'd
be
appropriate
to
listen
to
what
they
have
to
say
and
whether
it's
so
relevant
or
not
is
our
attorney
has
advised
us.
H
E
Chairman,
yes,
sir
and
I
make
it
funky.
Of
course
it
was
mentioned
before
that
the
police
department
showed
up
my.
There
is
no
records.
I
live
in
this
city
since
1981
we
have
an
excellent
police
department.
I.
Don't
think
that
this
Police
Department
will
have
no
records.
If
there
was
such
activity
across
the
house,
the
house
that
abandon
from
your
house
I
just
want
to
make
the
stipulation.
Thank
you.

Sure
I'm
Laurel
Whitney
I
lived
in
talking
a
little
over
17
years,
which
makes
me
a
relative
newcomer
here.
I
realized
that
previously
I
worked
for
the
pinellas
county
tax
collector
for
nearly
thirty
nine
years,
I
retired
last
year.
My
last
roll
was
administering
real
estate
and
personal
property
tax
collection
for
all
of
Pinellas
County
part
of
my
duties
also
included
sitting
on
and
sharing
various
boards
committees,
coalition's
and
user
groups,
so
I'm,
hoping
that
the
experience
I
have
will
be
of
benefit
to
you.
H
Thank
you
for
offering
yours
your
talents
and
abilities,
appreciate
that
and
welcome
you
to
the
board
and
we
need
alternates
because
there's
you
know
the
world.
Where
is
us
to
be
elsewhere,
sometimes
and
I
managed
to
get
here
tonight,
even
though
I
had
an
operation
last
week,
I'm
somewhat
incoherent
as
usual,
but
that's
not
unusual.
K
H
H
Out
of
town
and
I've
written
a
letter
to
the
City
Commission
I've,
been
we've
been
advised
that
I
can't
discuss
the
letter
before
the
board,
but
we
can
I,
don't
know
but
I've
written
the
letter
we've
discussed
it
briefly
until
we
were
told
we
couldn't,
and
it's
going
before
the
City
Commission
in
the
next
few
weeks.
I
hope
that
you
all
would
be
there
and
give
your
own
comments
again.
